Founder Rosie O’Donnell and Founding Artistic and Executive Director Lori Klinger have announce that Rosie’s Theater Kids will honor attorney Jay Cohen, and actor, director and writer BD Wong at this year’s Passing It On Gala, an evening of performances celebrating 20 years of mentorship. The gala will be directed by Artistic Director Lisa Danser and will take place Mon April 17 beginning at 6:30 PM with a performance and honoree presentation at The Kaye Playhouse at Hunter College (68th St between Park and Lex) followed by a dinner hosted by Judy Gold and a performance by Orfeh. Rosie’s Theater Kids will be joined by this year’s mentors who include Ehizoje Azeke, Lauren Chapman and Chesney Snow. Started in 2010, Passing It On is a vital part of Rosie’s Theater Kids’ artistic programming that identifies the individual talents and unique gifts within each student. Mentors from the professional theater and music community are paired with students so that they may gain insight not only into the richness in each artform, but what they are capable of achieving.
